Laser cleaning is a more effective, safer, and superior technology than traditional cleaning methods; however, laser cleaning is not foolproof. While lasers are great for use on most surfaces, they have limitations. For example, if you need to remove rust, our laser equipment will do it faster than if you had to remove a very thick coating over a large area. For the same reason, a flat surface will give better results than having to clean a surface with limited visibility. This doesn’t mean laser technology is only suitable for simple tasks. We do offer technology for complex 3D surfaces, but it is often not cost-effective to remove layers thicker than 0.5mm. If you have questions about whether laser cleaning is right for your business, our team is ready to help.

Laser cleaning technology works by sending nanosecond-long laser pulses to the surface. When it interacts with contaminants that absorb laser light, the contaminant or coating particles will either turn into gas or the pressure of the interaction will cause the particles to break away from the surface. With the right laser settings and equipment, laser cleaning has an unparalleled ability to clean down to the bare metal of your products. Adapt Laser focuses on the expertise and application of laser cleaning solutions that can be formulated for your specific situation. Once we determine the combination of settings and equipment, the process can be matched in other settings – working very efficiently without compromising the integrity of the surface you are cleaning. In addition to its cleaning capabilities, laser technology has other benefits: it is easy to operate, safe, easy to automate, quiet, and reliable. It requires no cleaning, has low operating costs, low maintenance costs, and is environmentally friendly. The price tag for a laser cleaner may seem high at first glance. However, the investment pays for itself within the first year of use. But you don’t have to take this statement at face value. When you speak with one of our team members, we can also provide a cost-benefit analysis specific to your organization.

In addition to all the benefits that laser cleaning brings to your organization, laser technology is also environmentally friendly. They emit no greenhouse gases and produce no waste. This is in stark contrast to traditional cleaning methods, which may provide beneficial results for your organization but are disastrous for water flows and the Earth’s atmosphere. By using laser technology, you gain many benefits, including Energy efficiency (eight times less than traditional processes); Chemical-free; No abrasive ingredients; Clean process; Safety; and Cost savings by not requiring full protective gear. Laser ablation is one of the safe media cleaning methods, but it must be used correctly. That’s why safety training is provided when purchasing our laser solutions. You’ll learn the ins and outs of new solutions and how to keep your applications and employees safe.
